No, Professional hockey players use wooden sticks or carbon composite one piece sticks and wooden sticks in the pros are becoming very rare as well.
These kinds of sticks are made of composite and are harder to break than wooden sticks. They are the best kind of stick for an advanced player.
That depends on who's using the stick. Give a beer league player a top-end composite stick and then give Sydney Crosby a $25 wood stick, who do you think would have the harder shot? Ultimately, the point and design of composite sticks is to manipulate the kick-point (where the shaft bends when taking a shot) to its lowest possible position on the shaft. The thinking is that the lower the kick-point, the harder the shot, the more accurate the shot, and the faster the release. Wood sticks have a mid kick-point (middle of the shaft). High-end composite sticks have the lowest kick-point while mid-level and price-point composite sticks have higher kick-points (but lower than a wood stick).
Normally, they use composite instead of wood.
Eariler they made sticks from wood, which they made their own curve, shafts etc. Nowadays, that's made in companies. And the materials have changed from wood only to newer, lighweight materials such as composite or graphite.
no you can not cut an ice hockey stick, but you can break it with the right amount of force you can if you get a big scissors
